My New Year's Resolution

I'm back like Baby Bash within a week's (denard) span. This break is obviously not very entertaining seeing that I am already on my second blog post since returning home for the holidays.

I'm three days deep into 2011 and I have already been asked a handful of times what my New Year's resolution would be. My response: "I'm blogging about it." How pathetic am I? First of all I'm expecting people to stay tuned and read my blog at a later time to know my New Years resolution. And secondly, I'm turning into one of those boorish novelists who hide behind their words and portray themselves through insecure fictional characters. However for my New Year's resolution I will not portray myself as Stanley Yelnats, instead, I will tell you that it is my goal for 2011 to get things right.

This isn't a "resolution" an emo kid would say to their parents after receiving not only a bad report card in the mail, but also an illegal bottle of narcotics shipped from China as well. However I want to be able to know factual things about life, similarly to how Chris Sheehan can name the glove that any baseball player who has played in Rhode Island in the past 3 years has used during their career.

I want to know

When it is good to make a music video in a bowling alley and when it isn't. Justin Bieber's hit video "Baby" was filmed in a bowling alley and has been viewed over 425,000,000 times. On the other hand, Jojo (god bless her soul) shot her video "Let it Rain" in a bowling alley as well and her video has received just over 1,000,000 views. This makes Bieber's video 425% more effective. How did Bieber's producer know he would have a 425% more successful video than Jojo? Grantid, when both of these videos were shot they both weren't old enough to get into the club, which always makes a solid video. However, because both of these videos were shot in a bowling alley proves that a cigarette smelling, average birthday party pizza, greesy (am I missing any other adjectives?) is the local hot spot for underage kids. Who knew? See this is the stuff 2011 needs to teach me!

Possible reasons why the difference in views between the 2 videos:
1.) No Ludacris in "Let in Rain"-he can only be involved in one H2O song anyway (Splash Waterfalls)
2.) There are less 15 year old girls and 68 year old men searching for Jojo videos then there are searching for Justin Bieber's.
3.) Except for Canada, only a select few know Jojo's real name, thus allowing for a more wide search when searching "jojo" on youtube.
2.) The images at 30 seconds in and 36 seconds in "Let it Rain"

The Hit...
